I Can't Let You Be a Memory - David Allan Coe

作词：W. Hanes

作曲：W. Hanes

Spent a lot of time playing the field

Thinking I knew all there was to know

But I never knew that love was real

Till I watched you come and go

There's been so many women by my side

Most of them just came along for the ride

They all left and I never cried

I think I'm about to

I can't let you be a memory

You just can't remain a used to be

I would rather be a fool for you

I'll do anything you want me to

Girl you let me take your heart and run

Never knowing you're the only One

But I can't let you slip away from me

I can't let you be a memory

There's been so many scares on this so heart

Piece by piece they've torn it apart

But girl what's left you've had from the start

They couldn't take it away

I can't let you be a memory

You just can't remain a used to be

I would rather be a fool for you

I'll do anything you want me to

Girl you let me take your heart and run

Never knowing you're the only One

But I can't let you slip away from me

I can't let you be a memory

I can't let you be a memory

You just can't remain a used to be

I would rather be a fool for you

I'll do anything you want me to
